(not always, in the "auto" case)

Although it doesn't really apply to you, because of the spaced-out 
nature of your source files, this will help someone out. If you have 
indentnext=auto set for formulae (or verbatim or itemize), then you have 
no indent if there's no blank line between the formula and the text. If 
there is a blank line, then there's a normal indent.

In the example, watch what happens after the two \stopformula s:

\setupindenting[medium,yes]
\setupformulas[indentnext=auto]
\starttext

\input ward
You will find that

\startformula
2+2=5
\stopformula % no blank line
for very large values of two.
\input dawkins
However, traditionalists maintain that

\startformula
2+2=4
\stopformula % extra blank line

Moving on, we find...
\input tufte

\stoptext

(pardon the extra test text. The bits that I wrote didn't make the 
example clear enough when typeset.)
